Chapter 8: The City of Il
Mawson's convoy was carrying slaves, and four men were assigned to escort Rick, and the speed of the march was very slow, and the people pushing the cart had lost their strength several times, and the convoy walked for more than ten days to reach the city of Il.
In the past ten days, Chen Yi has also exchanged a lot of food, and one exchange point is 100 kilograms of food, which is also very cost-effective! Then Chen Yi's storage space has all kinds of cooked meat, compressed biscuits, lettuce, bread, and 100 liters of drinking water. Now Chen Yi's storage space of nearly 200 cubic meters is comparable to a small room, and it is not a problem to stack these things.
It's just the volume of a hundred pounds of lettuce...... It's even better than other exchange items.
The exterior of the city looks very large, the walls are about twenty or thirty meters high, and when you reach the city gate, you can't see the end of the city wall to the left and right.
Six guards were carefully searching everyone entering the city at the city gates, where there were two teams of crossbowmen, distributed to the left and right. There were twenty crossbowmen in each team, and there were a lot of crossbowmen on the city wall, and you could see fifty or sixty crossbows from the battlements at any glance.
"My lord, this is a little bit of the Mawson family......"
Mawson secretly handed the guard a bag of gold coins, and the guard weighed the bag, knocked the badge of the Mawson family on Mawson's chest, waved his hand, and said, "Go in." ”
The guards then gave way sideways, and Mawson's convoy entered the city unhindered.
The closer you get to the center of the city, the more shops there are, and the more prosperous the trade area in the center of the city can be said to be extremely prosperous, almost all the goods you want can be found here, magic staffs, poisons are sold in the right and bright light, and even assassination weapons such as throwing knives and hidden arrows can be ordered by the blacksmith shop owner.
As a modern assassin in the 21st century who has received nine years of compulsory education, hot weapons are obviously Chen Yi's best choice at present, of course, Chen Yi is still a little jealous of the magic of this world in his heart, after all, if someone uses magic that he doesn't understand one day, he will be completely burped.
Defeat magic with magic!
Therefore, Chen Yi naturally has a great interest in the magic of this world, but connections are also one of the key conditions for survival, and Chen Yi's bet on the Mosen family this time is also a bet on Yir City.
Narek's poisonous dragon bandit group has obviously coveted the heirlooms of the Mawson family for a long time, and they are also eyeing the position of the lord of Il.
This time, if Chen Yi handles the matter well, he will not only be able to win over the potential connections of the Mosen family, but also get a lot of exchange points from the Poison Dragon Bandit Group, after all, Chen Yi only killed more than 20 bandits with low combat effectiveness, and obtained about two hundred exchange points. If these forces can be wiped out, the contribution to Yier City will be great, presumably even the city lord will also want to take the initiative to befriend Chen Yi.
A group of men and horses sent the prisoner cart to the slave market, and those buyers had been waiting here for the batch of "goods" sent by Mawson, and when they saw the prisoner cart coming, they took the initiative to take out their money bags and began to look for the slaves they wanted to buy.
In this era, slaves without status naturally became commodities for the powerful, and war criminals and prisoners were sold as slaves if they were unlucky.
Looking at the slaves who were tragically trafficked, and then recalling that he had also entered the prisoner car, that kind of depressed mood also made Chen Yi not want to experience it a second time, looking at those slaves, he couldn't help but feel pity.
Of course, Chen Yi is not a good person, naturally he will not save those so-called slaves, this is a product of the times, and the status quo is not something that he can change alone.
After a few thoughtful glances at the slave standing next to the price tag, Chen Yi came back to his senses, looked at Mo Sen who was waving to Chen Yi not far away, and walked away.
The corners of Chen Yi's mouth appeared with a slight deep curvature, and he muttered:
"I'll see how sincere your Mawson family is, if it's enough, I'll make sure that your Mawson family is in full swing within a month!"
